Are you dealing with your person with dementia refusing showers, changing clothes or incontinence?
On Thursday, August 20th at 7:30pm EDT, I'm hosting a Members Only Workshop called "Deep Dive on Showers & Hygiene."
I'll show you what you could be doing wrong that may be encouraging shower and hygiene refusals, and then I'll show you how to get the job done instead.
I'll also help you overcome the most common refusals, like when your person swears they already showered, won't go in the bathroom, freezes halfway through, or won't let you change a pad.
Make showering feel like less of a guessing game and start getting them clean.
This workshop is for caregivers who want to learn:
Why your person refuses to shower, including the physical reason most caregivers miss, so you can stop taking it personally and respond in a way that actually gets them clean.
What to say when they insist they already showered or won't step foot in the bathroom, so you can get past the no without forcing anything or turning it into a fight.
How to get them out of dirty clothes and into fresh ones, so you can handle the wet and the smell without embarrassing them or wearing yourself out.
How to get them to let you change an incontinence brief, so you can protect their skin and their dignity at the same time.
The Workshop Will Consist Of:
A live Zoom presentation where you can volunteer or watch one of the three practice rounds so you know what to say before you have to use them.
Simple, repeatable actions you can implement immediately at the next meal, instead of dreading it.
Opportunities to bounce ideas off other caregivers with a breakout rooms session at the end (usually for 15 minutes after the hour-long main session has ended.)
A questions & answers session where any questions you have will be answered.
Clear, simple guidance so you can stop arguing or feeling powerless and start feeling confident about what to do next.

Special Bonus:
3 Cheatsheets included with your purchase:
Shower Refusals Checklist
Pinpoint the real reason behind the refusal, from pain to embarrassment to plain overwhelm, so you can stop guessing and know what you're actually up against.
Rule out the physical causes first, like a sore shoulder or a UTI hiding behind a refusal that came on suddenly, so you're not spending weeks talking your way through a medical problem.
Match the reason to the fix instead of trying everything at once, so you can walk in with a plan the next time they tell you no.
Why They Refuse to Shower Checklist
Spot what you may be doing that's feeding the refusal, from too many words to too many steps at once, so you can change your approach instead of pushing harder.
Work through the reasons in the order to check them, so you get to the source of the problem before you say a word and stop trying the right approach on the wrong problem.
Keep a record of what actually worked for your person, so your hardest won wins are still there next week and for whoever helps you next.
Shopping List for Showers & Incontinence
Find every rinse free product I trust for the days a real shower isn't happening, from no rinse soap to shower wipes to dry shampoo, so you can get them clean without the bathroom fight.
Get the incontinence products that actually fit your person, including adaptive clothing, wipe warmers and barrier creams, so changes stop turning into a wrestling match.
Click straight through to buy each one, plus the caregiving websites I use when Amazon doesn't carry it, so you can stop losing evenings to reading reviews.
